We had a potluck at our house a while back and one of my good friends brought a tray of delicious baked apples. Everybody loved them, so I had to get the list of ingredients. A few days later, I made my own version. My friend’s list of ingredients did not have the amounts, so I improvised. I also removed two [...]
As per our list (things to do with children during Christmas), a couple of days ago, we went to the Nutcracker ballet. It was an interesting evening to say the least. The ballet is organized by Jeunesse Classique Ballet in Calgary. Children in training are the stars of the show. It was a nice show. A little slow once in [...]
